Came to a realization the other day.

Recently a few friends have told me that I should try to consider the fact that I might need help. I thought about it and at first was like naaaa I'm fine. and then after a while of looking back I realized that I do have a problem.
I especially need to be good cause there's a possibility I could be pregnant right now...
So hi, you guys can call me Nia, (not my real name) I think I may be on here a bit from now on.

Welcome to SR.

Stopping for your baby is a wise idea. Over the 9 months you can find many answers and supports so you can continue on a healthier life style for both you and the baby.

Love is blind! Don't exclude our love of Alcohol from the equation there either. Our Addictions and the negative impact it has on our lives is so obvious that a child can spot it. Let alone good friends that don't have a problem telling us. Maybe that's one of the reasons that we tend to socialize with inferiors as the disease progresses. They're more accepting of us and our ways. We can heed the advise of our friends or we can lower our standards and keep on drinking.
Sounds like you have some good friends there. Hang onto them.

I'm holding onto them. I'm really glad they didn't give up on me, cause I've done some really stupid things over the last 4 1/2 or so years. Worst part is I'm only 17.
